Rear passenger glass
Back-seat windows are where kids and pets sit in the sun. Ceramic film cuts the heat and glare on those panes and adds privacy for whatever you keep in the cargo area.

Model Y Window Tint for Santa Ana Drivers
Model Y owners in Santa Ana drive up to Tesla Tint LA, part of Audio MotorSports at 22025 S Avalon Blvd Ste A in Carson, about 23.5 miles away. The Model Y has a lot of glass behind the front seats, so ceramic film there makes the biggest difference for family drives and school pickups.

Model Y tint for Santa Ana families
Tailgate glass
The rear window is a large single piece, and the film is formed to its curve before it goes down, so it stays flat and clear.
Front windows
The fronts stay at the California legal shade, with enough film to help against low sun on the freeway.
Factory roof glass
That panel comes dark from the factory, so only side and rear windows are filmed, and cameras and sensors stay clear.
Other services
Car audio, car stereo installation, car alarm installation and dash camera installation can be added to the same visit.

Questions
Santa Ana questions we hear
Why do Model Y owners tint the rear half of the car first?
The back windows and tailgate glass are the largest area where passengers sit in direct sun. Film there lowers cabin heat and adds privacy, and you can always add the front side windows at the legal shade later.
Is Carson worth the drive for a Santa Ana Model Y?
Most owners say yes after the first hot day. The drive is under an hour, you book a time, and the work is done by a shop that films Teslas regularly. Some customers come from well beyond 100 miles.
Does tint on a Model Y affect the rear camera or parking sensors?
No. The rear camera and sensor spots are masked and left clear of film, so backing up looks exactly as it did. The ceramic film itself carries no metal, so it does not touch any radio signal.
How do you handle the Model Y rear glass in one piece?
The installer shrinks the film to the curve with heat before application, then squeegees it into place around the defroster lines. That prep is what keeps the large rear window smooth, with no fingers or lifted edges.
Can I leave my Model Y and pick it up later?
Yes. Book ahead, drop the car at your appointment time, and collect it once the film has been installed and checked. If you would rather watch, the waiting area has seating, Netflix and Wi-Fi.
